I recently downloaded Adobe Reader 6.0.1 then updated to 6.0.2. Every time I try to open a pdf file my computer totally freezes up. I had 5.0 before that had a few problems. It was very slow to open and always had a message about an error concerning plug-ins. I thought I would get rid of that by upgrading to 6.0.1. I have Windows SE. What have I done wrong?
Should I go back to 5.0?
